Which of these three will you try to incorporate into your daily routine? What habits have improved your life? Let us know in the comments below 🤙 IG ► instagram.com/thestrengthside
Nice tips I like the cold plunge you guys built very nice 👍 it’s easy to take cold showers and plunges here in hot humid Florida lol and I wake up at 4-5 AM every day I go to bed early by 9 PM ;) I take a long walk with my dog at day light everyday , only time that you can here 🌞 ac life in summer 🥵
Also take time out to read a book. Or just lay on your bed close you're eye's and just scan you body to see how you feel from feet to head. Feeling the sensations just for 5 to 10 minutes
Cold shower is my morning routime, after a breathing exercize. Learn to breath is most important. I will recommended Wim Hof breathing guide for everyone. You guys doin a great job and you helped me a lot. Especially with my knee pain. Thank you for your existing
Get up at 6, drink a fraction of the coffee I used to, varied work out 45-60 minutes, no alcohol, white flour or sugar, zero social media, always have a couple of books I’m reading, try to be of service to my family and friends, life is good, fit and peaceful 58 yo woman.
@@luclafor kind of, but those most toxic effects (showing of etc) are not here. A thoughful person can easily use RUclips only to his benefit, without engaging in any negativity
Streching out with Josh since 2020, practicing macaco flips etc., cold showers, riding a bike whenever I can, reading before falling asleep, putting limits on browsing social media (fb, twitter once a week for no more than 20 min)., intermittent fasting - I eat from 12 to 6 o'clock. Lost 20 kg, partially got rid of anxiety problems, better look, less headaches, general improvement in mobility flexibility and health, day appears to be longer... Love you guys. :)
And I’m stretching out with Strength Side since 2020...still remember our chat about the cold shower and I told them “not a hope when the weather is miserable in Ireland “... but hey,2 years down the road since the Primal Athlete 1, and the cold showers are My Things at any time of the year!
not into fasting at all. i'm very active, 6'4", 54 years old, and never stop eating (everything i eat is the right kind of food though, i've educated myself on good nutrition). i'm also in great shape, so it really doesn't matter anymore what time i eat, i'll always burn it off 👊. staying very active (cardio/resistance work), eradicating all your cravings and addictions, and learning about good nutrition really is the fountain of youth. i'll never feel more than 30 years old so long as i can keep active and maintain my discipline (which is easy once you've beaten those cravings/addictions).
@@MrBadintentionss we're on the same page with being active. Congrats, hope I'll be in as great shape as you are once I get there.. Working on it. All the best to you.
Dudes, our public schools should use curriculum for health and PE designed by you guys. You give meaningful tips and suggest ways to work our way up to goals based on our current levels. Good teaching. Y'all make me cry sometimes, happy tears. You nailed it talking about distractions. I wish I could have told my dad this thought when he was younger. From now on when he asks if I want a drink, I will walk with him instead. Better late than never. Shine on men.
I was close to breaking down physically from a disorder and as a last ditch effort I started biking. It was extremely painful both physically and mentally, but after months I got through it and since then my body has strengthened and adapted. I no longer suffer from this disorder and now I’m a huge fitness enthusiast. I implore all of you out there that are low on hope, stick with it and stay strong. It will pay off
My walk starts directly after my final meal of the day, at night. I walk for 2hours and it has improved my digestion, my sleep, my mood, my creativity, my strength, and my body.
A habit that helps me is waking up and taking care of myself 1st, instead of waking up my baby and feeding her immediately. I let her chill while I drink water first thing, make coffee, take vitamins, and thennnn I will get my baby. It creates less stress not worrying about us both at the same time and I love the routine of it. It's easy to forget about yourself when children come along. It's like a plane: put your oxygen mask on first and then take care of the child. ❤️ everyone is better off in the end.
I’ve been taking super cold showers for a year every morning, but eventually found that it causes inflammation in my shoulder tendons and joints. It grew slowly and at first I though it was just muscle soreness from my workout. But eventually I started wondering why the pain doesn’t go away and keeps getting stronger. Stopped cold showers and the pain went away in a couple of days. Repeated, and got the same results. After some research found that even Wim Hoff confirmed the effect of cold water - it can elevate any hidden inflammation you might have. I have inherently weak (thin) bones and most likely my joints and tendons are not that strong either. I started calisthenics at the same time I started cold showers, and calisthenics most likely cause micro-injuries in my shoulder tendons and joints. And cold water most likely brings this side effect to a higher level. So I am not saying cold water is bad for everyone, just want to warn about potential side effects for some people. As to me, I decided to get back to cold water when I strengthen my body to the point where I don’t incur micro-injuries from workout that much. I am 52, started working out after 30 years of gap, no wonder my body needs time to get stronger, but I am sure it will one day.
Interesting. I did an ice bath for a few min recently and the next day it felt like I got hit by a car. Perhaps I am in the same boat as you, as I generally have inflammation in my body
@@gazza18881967 The main benefit I saw is that I stopped feeling cold outside in the winter. I live in Canada, winters are brutally cold, people wear thick parkas to stay warm, so as I. But last winter I never wore a jacket, even during coldest days. And most importantly, I didn’t feel cold. No shivers, nothing. Feels like the cold is about 6 inches away from the body. I believe this is how animals feel in winter. Some of them, like moose and deer, don’t have very thick fur, yet they stay outside 24/7. So it’s not all about fur, the body has a natural mechanism to adapt and survive in freezing temperatures. Practicing cold showers helps awaken this mechanism, become much closer to nature. I also didn’t catch any cold the entire winter and when I got Covid, I recovered very quickly without any complications. So I do believe there are benefits, just need to find the right balance. Even a medicine can become poison in large quantities.
@@floop74 While I chose cold showers, my wife preferred ice baths. She noticed the same effect on her joints. But what’s interesting, her pain was mostly in wrists and elbows, not shoulders. Sounds strange, but technically when you take baths, it’s the wrists and elbows that stay in cold water, shoulders usually remain above the line. While in showers it’s the opposite- the shoulders got hit the hardest. That was another sign for us that our discomfort had something to do with cold water. And yes, inflammation just gets magnified. So be careful, do your research. I heard testimonials people had problems even with their eyes due to inflammation after starting practicing cold water.
Hey guys, love the video and I totally agree. I'm almost 60 and over the last year I have been getting up at first light and going for a walk. After the walk I take a warmish shower for about a minute so I can shave, then I turn it to cold and stay in there for about 4 minutes. It has made a huge difference in my life. Just the cold shower makes my mood so much better for the whole day. Now I do crave the cold shower, and I hated the thought of cold water shower before I gave it a try. And the early walk gets it out of the way and sets my day off in the right direction. Thanks for the video.
Do the three of them nearly every morning since about 1 year ago. For me, sun gazing in the morning and grounding while walking encouraged me a great deal to continue these habits as the feeling is priceless and also it helps me go to sleep so much earlier (having dinner early has also had a great impact on my sleep)
1 - wim huf breathing 2 - 4 min tabata or running 15 min in nature 3 - ice bath 4 - yoga (chanting AUM with Shadguru or Vipasana) and at night, meditating before sleep
Honestly, the key about waking up early without falling into the snooze button trap as you guys pointed out is as simple as having a clear-cut plan of what you're going to do right from the moment you get out of bed. No vague ideas such as "I'm going to work out" or "I'm going to meditate" or "I'm going to read a book." In my experience, that doesn't cut it. I kept hitting that snooze button every morning until I started writing down exactly what I would do when I woke up the next day every night before going to sleep. The clearer the goals, the easier it is.
100%. everyone needs structure and discipline in their life to keep them on the straight and narrow. it's when people get bored and stop feeling good about themselves that addiction creeps in.
Nice vid, been changing some habits lately and major ones are: - got sober 10 months ago - started with Wim Hof Method stuff - intermittent fasting, 20/4 Not everyday is 100% successful, but learning and making steps. Main goal for coming six months is to find time and routine to add some exercise.
@@citizenmattify you can do it, give it a serious try, it really helps to stay focussed. Use an app that counts the time that you are sober, helped me a lot. All ‘first time’ activities are a bit strange, like a birthday or a concert. But once you did something without, it gets easier the second time….. And the benefits are very noticable, not only the morning after haha. For me alcohol messed up my other goals like eating better and sleeping better.
Thank u guys :) Good advices. One of my favourite morning routine habits is meditating for at least 10 minuntes every morning. AND - (especially for people who got a lot of stress) - After waking up - really DO NOT THINK and don't really do anything. This could mean, while you'r drinking yout morning tea, just sit and drink and don't think about what u have to do this day or other ish. This is almost the same like "more complicated" meditation techniques. Actually it's Zen. And it and really can do some magic. ✨😎
Hi I am a 66 year old cancer survivor discovered strength side this month, Jan 2023. Already feel much better. Strengthening my body feels good. Thank you Hash brothers
I do all these things. Meditation is a big one as well. I can maybe miss a day, but if I miss several days in a row I become super unfocused and irritable and just perform poorly in general. I would also recommend journaling in whatever form you feel comfortable with. I generally just stick to one A4 page or less and just evaluate my performance from the previous day, what I would like to achieve on the upcoming day, what is pissing me off or keeping me distracted and I try to think of at least one, but preferably two or three, things I’m thankful for.
I've been doing these first thing in the morning for a while and additionally meditating, wim hoff breathing and stretching outside when i go for a walk, my morning routine takes about an hour and a half to two hours then I make a coffee and start working
I get in the ocean every day and yes it’s uncomfortable at first, but now my body craves it and need it to feel fully awake. I know the discomfort is temporary and that I will recover quickly from the cold. I encourage people new to this practice to relax into it and release resistance. You kind of have to psyche yourself out. Don’t cower from it but go all in instead. Also, getting my hair wet and dunking completely under is a must for me, otherwise I feel incomplete and don’t get the full body reset I’m craving.
Gardening! Of course, if you don’t have a garden, it’s a bit difficult. But, to me it’s both a way to workout (it can be light weeding or hard digging/moving dirt when preparing the garden in the spring/fall) and a way to simply disconnect from the daily grind, so it essentially becomes sort of meditating.
Already doing the cold showers since February this year. Feeling stronger and refreshed after each shower! 💪 Sometimes going for a walk, but I already proposed to myself to start doing this daily, after I wake up. I think I will also grab the rings, walk to the nearby forest and do a series of dips, pull ups or whatever comes to mind that particular day. start waking up early - I also am trying this one out, but as it is a new skill to me, it will only get improved by time. Just focus and repeat. cool tips! love your energy and content!
I wake at 5:30 drink some water and then walk for about an hour with my dog, i have no excuse to not walk, my dog gets me out the house, i use different routes around my village every morning which adds a bit of variety. Arrive home and do an hour of jump rope, weighted ropes and some pushups, i like to do maybe 50 or so. Eat and relax for about 30 mins. I don’t check messages, i don’t do facebook, twitter etc and then head of to work. I have a fairly outdoor manual job so i’m on the go all day, arrive home around 5:30 and will eat around 7:00 p.m. Walk with my dog, a tepid shower and then i’ll watch a couple of hours of t.v. and on a normal evening i’ll be in bed around 9:30, read for an hour and try to be settled to sleep around 10:30, and normally i have no problem sleeping.
Being present ... fully engaged...that is my #1reason I ride my Harley. No choice but to be fully in that moment. I love all 3 of these habits in your video and agree 100%!!! I love waking at 5AM or before...exercise, bible reading and breakfast are my 100% alone time. And I also do enjoy that cold shower... but probably could stand to do it more!
Beautiful human beings! My morning routine is so supportive to set me up for each day in life, whatever I may do or face if I start my day grounded, connected and clear the day is amazing 🙏🌞 From deep breathing and meditation, drinking water and green tea, doing qigong, that “cold shower” affirmations while getting ready… the day is already been so beautiful ✌️❤️
I’ve been finishing my showers cold for over 4 years now. I can count on one hand the times I don’t do it per year. I also plan my week on Sunday nights, little tasks that help keep me on track towards my goals. Movement, play and work every day. 🤙 Great video, guys.
My dog "makes" me take her for an hour walk at least once (sometimes twice) a day. We usually go in the park (a wooded area). Cell phone is in my fanny pouch for emergencies and on DND. There is little talking and a lot of "mental" communication with her. Sometimes I bring my mala beads to repeat a mantra, but most of the time it's a time for silent bonding with puppers, devoid of anything electronic...just listening (with ears, eyes, skin) to the wilderness and its animals. We have gotten to know the individuals in a community of deer, as well as a red-tailed hawk.
Wake up early since february,cold shower most of the time. 1 outdoor activity per month if its in my budget (this month was walking along the beach) Each month,take some time journaling to determine the goal of the month and where i am at my actual situation. Yoga everyday. Since 1 month back to my exercise routine 3x per week(so hard to find back the consistency of routine,but its a goal) And stop thinking about why people say dumb things and why they think like like this. To each his opinion and as long as i am at peace with what im doing their perspective is not an issue.( the journey is a long one though) Added your stretching to my daily routine also,thank you
Interesting. A few weeks ago I have started to get up two hours earlier, at a fixed time. Initially to have more time for preparing my day, meal prep, and the odd fitness challenge. I work shifts, so early in the mornings is the only reliable time for me. Before doing Keto, this was never even an option because I would become tired in the afternoons when getting up early. Not anymore. Constant energy all day long. I get up at 5am, take a cold shower for five minutes, and do all my actual showering with cold water these days. Very refreshing. I then cook my lunch or dinner, have my breakfast if I feel like having one and then I still have an hour just for me. So yeah, I can only agree: Get up early, spend time on yourself, and do things. Take cold showers. And for myself, start a keto diet. Simplified my life a LOT. And I get a lot more done.
I have been getting up at 3:30 am every day for about 2 years. I get my 2 miles and a small workout before I get to work at 6 am. As for the cold shower, I start with a regular shower, then finish with a cold shower. You guys are amazing!!!!! Thanks for your videos. ❤❤
I already wake up early but now I've been more purposeful and intentional with my time- stretch (with Strength Side video), pray, meditate. I spend like an hour before work preparing for my day which is still me working remotely with a 6:30am start time. I do need to incorporate more walking into my daily routine.
working out is a habit since years now and I mostly stick to it no matter what......out of comfort zone no matter what.......walking and realize the big picture is a great thing...could be part of mine more often.....everthing must make sense....start from the presence is a young routine quit young.....better than being exactly right......like your work very much...as always
Thank you.for your clear and simple advices. To answer your question about what habit did I follow that changed my life. Excercise in the morning (short like 5 min) to set my body in motion. I write in my journal, it helps me have a higher prospective of some hard situations I encounter. Stop having complaining thoughts and have gratitude for simple things. Thank you for your video, it is nice to hear positive words. Kind regards. Juan
Thanks for this short, but valuable video. It made me realize that I too can use more walks on ordinary working days. I also always take cold showers and this (summer time in Holland) is the perfect time to go even a step further and start swimming in open water. The goal is to do this regularly the whole year round to get used to the different seasons and never get a bad cold anymore. My Frisian grandfather used cold water to wash himself all his life and he never got a bad cold. Greetings from Edwin
Working out and journaling are the two habits that have improved my life the most. So did having a morning routine but I quit that habit. I'mm starting that again because it had such a huge impact on my productivity and mindset for the day and ultimately, how content I am with that day. Meditating for just a few minutes with breathing patterns has really helped calming my anxiety. Walking is great but I wanna put that back into my morning instead of evening. I hate cold showers haha but they give you sensation and body awareness like nothing else. I'm also committing to times off of social media because it's draining and distracting. My goal is to be more present and proactive. Great video, keep up the good work! I really like your channel because of how simple yet effective your content is. One of my long time favs on yt.
I find by just getting in contact with the floor enough to clear my mind… sitting, meditating, stretching all starts on the floor and it’s a really great way to hit the in body reset button
1 hour of meditation at the start and at the end of the day, starting within the first and last fifteen minutes with a small practice to end/ start the day. This helped ground in tremendous clarity and cognizance, which eventually gave way to an easy set point to begin every day without requiring an hour to get into that state of being, once it was familiar, and once the arrangement was set in spirit.
What I like and do every morning, is get outside in our small garden barefoot and enjoy my one and only coffee of the day. But waking up earlier, have a walk and a cold shower afterwards is definitely worth trying! I'll give it a shot.
You guys: please, think about the 70’s and above crowd that also watches you guys and are fans. Some of the jumps and other strenuous exercises are not possible for 75 year olds like myself but I like what you guys show us to create new habits; we oldies would love to be included in your videos. Remember this fellows!!!
I started sea swimming 8 weeks ago. We swim off a beautiful place called Battery Rocks in Penzance. Just in shorts, no wetsuit. About 25 mins a time depending on the cold. The sun risers I have seen have been magical. The seal is sometimes out. And you feel so totally alive.
Hello ,wake up 15 min early. checked ☑️ Cold chower 10 min checked ☑️ 20 min meditation checked☑️ My morning routine. 😉 greetings from Belgium. 🇧🇪keep up the good work guys. Thanks for the video. (Btw 57 years young.) 😃
This channel it's a blessing, sometimes we can learn this in a life chaos time, but these guys give the best tips ever as the best way it could be, everything works, and trust it works well, 1 year of cold water helped me to start life again as a solo mom, the habits are small but the impact is sooooo big!
switching from wine to de alcoholized wine.....only has trace amounts of alcohol in it but just the feeling of opening a wine bottle, pouring it into a wine glass and having it vaguely taste like wine seems to be a visual cue that kicks in immediate anti anxiety....now its just less taxing on my liver......
All of these habits have become way way harder to implement since I became a parent. If I by some miracle wake up before my kid I have to stay super quiet not to wake him up. That eliminates cold showers, exercise, cooking, obvioulsy also walking (can´t leave my 1yo home alone).I guess I could try to meditate but i´m way way too tired for that in the morning. That said you uys are right - mornings are the key. I you start right, you finish right
I do all except the cold shower My daily mental and physical routines have provided much productivity , positive mental health , and just staying well-balanced !!
Almost at 1mil bros! Richly deserved. After following this channel for a while, I've implemented these 3 habits and could have predicted them seeing this video title :D This stuff works!
One habit which has improved my mental health immensely is daily meditation of 10 minutes. It helps me to disidentify from negative thoughts and be less distracted.
I go for a sunset beachwalk and dance every night for 30 mins minimum. So I practice about 6 songs each night. I've now learned about 20 dances in 2 years (yeah yeah they were hard 😉). It's been a Gamechanger for me. Learning daily, brain health, physical health, optimising positive thinking. I sleep in a great mood every night now. 💃🏽 Love your videos from Australia guys ❤️🙌🏾 But the real issue everyone faces these days is the definition of success. My definition of success is being able to live like you guys do. Clearly doing things you love. Unfortunately society pushes us to accept a very different definition of success that is inconsistent with the lifestyle you guys describe. 😪 Still figuring this part out....
Great advice here...I went through depression and a few of these tricks really help. Snapping your body out of auto pilot. Keep changing stuff up to you active and present in the moment. Simple stuff like I swim in the morning before work and each time I change what locker I'm using. Drive to work different ways. I found this helps. Walking and quick runs are Lsogreat advice. Sounds small but shit like this really helps with well being.
Great vid. Habbit building is a vital skill. I recently started a morning session of positive hydration + positive information. And am working towards complementing it with an evening session of positive nutrition + positive socialising. Ideas to schedules, schedules to habits, habitis to goals.
Making things easily accessible for me as been a game changer, the door I walk through everyday has a chin up bar an hangboard and around my workspace I have kettle bells. I use them so much more often than if they were harder to get to.
We are all raised with bad habits. Sometimes it takes years to over come what seems to be normal. I’ve been walking after dinner every night for years (2 miles). It is one of the best habits I trained myself to do.
.I take cold showers for almost 2 years now and very often its the best thing during the day. IT helps to releas all stres and bad energy. Great video and greetings from PL !!!
Teach yourself to awaken before the alarm goes off. I hate the sound of an alarm & have slowly learned to wake up at whatever time I wish (mostly). I set the alarm if needed but usually wake up before it rings.
0:28 wake up earlier and stick to it, and have morning preplanned 1:25 go for a walk and be present in the moment 2:34 take a cold shower, it’s uncomfortable so helps deal with other daily stress
A few annotations: 1. Rather than getting up early, get enough sleep. Choose a time to get up that is most comfortable to you and routinely get up then and also have a fixed time to go to bet. Improve your sleep rather than waking up earlier!!! 2. Going for a walk is good to relax. Doesn't have to be about thinking something through. Preferably the walk should be in daylight to positively influence your sleep-waking-cycle. 3. Cold showers do have positive effects on mood and stress reduction. The mechanism "let others stressors seem small" is debatable. Studies simply show potential reduction in depressive symptoms and lowering of stress. The are some possible mechanisms through adaption to cortisol, which is released during cold showers, and hightening of serotonin, but the details still need more research.
When I wake up I make a smoothie and I don't let myself sit down to drink it. I stay standing there at the counter and take my vitamins with it. It's a small thing but I KNOW I'll have my smoothie each morning so... this has been a simple way to ensure I take my vitamins.
Wake up at 04h30 for a 45 min - 900 Cal kettlebell workout, followed by a cold shower + keto OMAD. Feeling better every day since starting this lifestyle. Also drastically reduced my alcohol intake :-)
Thanks! Nice tipps :) I added Meditation with deep breathing to my morning routine. 10-30 min every day. Getting my brain clear and implementing good, positive thoughts actively. A cold shower is also a part of the routine. Very effective! I´ll try the 15 min earlier and the walk. :) Thank you for your Output! I started the hanging and the squad 2 years ago and don't wanna live without them anymore! Even my father got a hanging place now. Very nice :)) Big Ups to you!!
Woah man, there are two of you. This is the first time watching this channel and I didn't realise that until the middle of the video ! Great tips friend. Cheers
Wake up at 4:30 most days during the week for the workout, cold showers only all summer. Other seasons they're moderately warm and go to cold at the end.
I love cold showers. In the winters when it snows, I take snow baths! I make a camp fire at night, strip down and dive into the snow and scrub myself all over with the cold snow. Then I go to the fire and warm up a bit and repeat. I love this and taking barefoot snow walks. I work up to longer and longer ones over time contain my steps. Yes, I go back to the fire and get a warm up and repeat. It's fun!
I wake up at 5am during the week and walk after dinner. The cold shower is a a stretch but I think the time to start it is now in the summer when it's not totally miserable :)
love your ideas and your channel. I started experimenting with cold showers this summer when I was experiencing panic attacks quite often. It really works and you can feel the effects instantly! I see now, especially as I get older, that the heat is not always your friend, although sometimes can be soothing to muscles but not so much nervous system, or skin etc. Side note: I also found appreciation for the shower and bath scenes 😆 so thank you!

Hey man. I do all 3of these anyway but it is great advice for well being. I'm subscribing now cos these posts are right up my street.
Also take time out to read a book. Or just lay on your bed close you're eye's and just scan you body to see how you feel from feet to head. Feeling the sensations just for 5 to 10 minutes
Cold shower is my morning routime, after a breathing exercize. Learn to breath is most important. I will recommended Wim Hof breathing guide for everyone. You guys doin a great job and you helped me a lot. Especially with my knee pain. Thank you for your existing
Go early in bed 🛏
Get up at 6, drink a fraction of the coffee I used to, varied work out 45-60 minutes, no alcohol, white flour or sugar, zero social media, always have a couple of books I’m reading, try to be of service to my family and friends, life is good, fit and peaceful 58 yo woman.
what an awesome example for your friends and family♥
Props! We need more ppl like you!
RUclips comment section is kind of a social media
@@luclafor kind of, but those most toxic effects (showing of etc) are not here. A thoughful person can easily use RUclips only to his benefit, without engaging in any negativity
@@maciejguzek3442 - you're absolutely right, I agree
Streching out with Josh since 2020, practicing macaco flips etc., cold showers, riding a bike whenever I can, reading before falling asleep, putting limits on browsing social media (fb, twitter once a week for no more than 20 min)., intermittent fasting - I eat from 12 to 6 o'clock. Lost 20 kg, partially got rid of anxiety problems, better look, less headaches, general improvement in mobility flexibility and health, day appears to be longer... Love you guys. :)
And I’m stretching out with Strength Side since 2020...still remember our chat about the cold shower and I told them “not a hope when the weather is miserable in Ireland “... but hey,2 years down the road since the Primal Athlete 1, and the cold showers are My Things at any time of the year!
Meditation, mewing?
Powerful testimonial. For those who know, those modest changes produce noticeable and valuable enhancements to our experience of life
not into fasting at all. i'm very active, 6'4", 54 years old, and never stop eating (everything i eat is the right kind of food though, i've educated myself on good nutrition). i'm also in great shape, so it really doesn't matter anymore what time i eat, i'll always burn it off 👊. staying very active (cardio/resistance work), eradicating all your cravings and addictions, and learning about good nutrition really is the fountain of youth. i'll never feel more than 30 years old so long as i can keep active and maintain my discipline (which is easy once you've beaten those cravings/addictions).
@@MrBadintentionss we're on the same page with being active. Congrats, hope I'll be in as great shape as you are once I get there.. Working on it. All the best to you.

Love it man. A drink here and there won't hurt but yeah making the norm a nice walk is great!
I was close to breaking down physically from a disorder and as a last ditch effort I started biking. It was extremely painful both physically and mentally, but after months I got through it and since then my body has strengthened and adapted. I no longer suffer from this disorder and now I’m a huge fitness enthusiast. I implore all of you out there that are low on hope, stick with it and stay strong. It will pay off
Yes, the body is so resilient.... great job you pushed through to get to a foundation to reap the benefits....
My walk starts directly after my final meal of the day, at night. I walk for 2hours and it has improved my digestion, my sleep, my mood, my creativity, my strength, and my body.
Damn you go for a two hour walk every day? God bless

Slow long walks in the evening at least 60 mins is great and especially after meals
@@coasteyscoasteys drones?
@@BeFourCM Thank you for pointing that out I guess I should have paid more attention!!🙃
A habit that helps me is waking up and taking care of myself 1st, instead of waking up my baby and feeding her immediately. I let her chill while I drink water first thing, make coffee, take vitamins, and thennnn I will get my baby. It creates less stress not worrying about us both at the same time and I love the routine of it. It's easy to forget about yourself when children come along. It's like a plane: put your oxygen mask on first and then take care of the child. ❤️ everyone is better off in the end.
I’ve been taking super cold showers for a year every morning, but eventually found that it causes inflammation in my shoulder tendons and joints. It grew slowly and at first I though it was just muscle soreness from my workout. But eventually I started wondering why the pain doesn’t go away and keeps getting stronger. Stopped cold showers and the pain went away in a couple of days. Repeated, and got the same results. After some research found that even Wim Hoff confirmed the effect of cold water - it can elevate any hidden inflammation you might have. I have inherently weak (thin) bones and most likely my joints and tendons are not that strong either. I started calisthenics at the same time I started cold showers, and calisthenics most likely cause micro-injuries in my shoulder tendons and joints. And cold water most likely brings this side effect to a higher level. So I am not saying cold water is bad for everyone, just want to warn about potential side effects for some people. As to me, I decided to get back to cold water when I strengthen my body to the point where I don’t incur micro-injuries from workout that much. I am 52, started working out after 30 years of gap, no wonder my body needs time to get stronger, but I am sure it will one day.
Interesting. I did an ice bath for a few min recently and the next day it felt like I got hit by a car. Perhaps I am in the same boat as you, as I generally have inflammation in my body
Did cold showers every day for 3 months. I saw absolutely no change or benefits
@Athlethics Bunch of woo woo. Nothing magic about going barefoot
@@gazza18881967 The main benefit I saw is that I stopped feeling cold outside in the winter. I live in Canada, winters are brutally cold, people wear thick parkas to stay warm, so as I. But last winter I never wore a jacket, even during coldest days. And most importantly, I didn’t feel cold. No shivers, nothing. Feels like the cold is about 6 inches away from the body. I believe this is how animals feel in winter. Some of them, like moose and deer, don’t have very thick fur, yet they stay outside 24/7. So it’s not all about fur, the body has a natural mechanism to adapt and survive in freezing temperatures. Practicing cold showers helps awaken this mechanism, become much closer to nature. I also didn’t catch any cold the entire winter and when I got Covid, I recovered very quickly without any complications. So I do believe there are benefits, just need to find the right balance. Even a medicine can become poison in large quantities.
@@floop74 While I chose cold showers, my wife preferred ice baths. She noticed the same effect on her joints. But what’s interesting, her pain was mostly in wrists and elbows, not shoulders. Sounds strange, but technically when you take baths, it’s the wrists and elbows that stay in cold water, shoulders usually remain above the line. While in showers it’s the opposite- the shoulders got hit the hardest. That was another sign for us that our discomfort had something to do with cold water. And yes, inflammation just gets magnified. So be careful, do your research. I heard testimonials people had problems even with their eyes due to inflammation after starting practicing cold water.
Hey guys, love the video and I totally agree. I'm almost 60 and over the last year I have been getting up at first light and going for a walk. After the walk I take a warmish shower for about a minute so I can shave, then I turn it to cold and stay in there for about 4 minutes. It has made a huge difference in my life. Just the cold shower makes my mood so much better for the whole day. Now I do crave the cold shower, and I hated the thought of cold water shower before I gave it a try. And the early walk gets it out of the way and sets my day off in the right direction. Thanks for the video.
Do the three of them nearly every morning since about 1 year ago. For me, sun gazing in the morning and grounding while walking encouraged me a great deal to continue these habits as the feeling is priceless and also it helps me go to sleep so much earlier (having dinner early has also had a great impact on my sleep)
1 - wim huf breathing
2 - 4 min tabata or running 15 min in nature
3 - ice bath
4 - yoga (chanting AUM with Shadguru or Vipasana)
and at night, meditating before sleep
Honestly, the key about waking up early without falling into the snooze button trap as you guys pointed out is as simple as having a clear-cut plan of what you're going to do right from the moment you get out of bed. No vague ideas such as "I'm going to work out" or "I'm going to meditate" or "I'm going to read a book." In my experience, that doesn't cut it. I kept hitting that snooze button every morning until I started writing down exactly what I would do when I woke up the next day every night before going to sleep. The clearer the goals, the easier it is.
I find being a smoker helps. I wake up and I want a cigarette and a coffee. Got up at 2am today. Life hacks.
100%. everyone needs structure and discipline in their life to keep them on the straight and narrow. it's when people get bored and stop feeling good about themselves that addiction creeps in.
Nice vid, been changing some habits lately and major ones are:
- got sober 10 months ago
- started with Wim Hof Method stuff
- intermittent fasting, 20/4
Not everyday is 100% successful, but learning and making steps.
Main goal for coming six months is to find time and routine to add some exercise.
Great job on the sobriety ma man. More and more I feel I need to go down this route for my health
Alcohol is a demon
@@citizenmattify you can do it, give it a serious try, it really helps to stay focussed. Use an app that counts the time that you are sober, helped me a lot. All ‘first time’ activities are a bit strange, like a birthday or a concert. But once you did something without, it gets easier the second time…..
And the benefits are very noticable, not only the morning after haha.
For me alcohol messed up my other goals like eating better and sleeping better.
Thank u guys :) Good advices. One of my favourite morning routine habits is meditating for at least 10 minuntes every morning. AND - (especially for people who got a lot of stress) - After waking up - really DO NOT THINK and don't really do anything. This could mean, while you'r drinking yout morning tea, just sit and drink and don't think about what u have to do this day or other ish. This is almost the same like "more complicated" meditation techniques. Actually it's Zen. And it and really can do some magic. ✨😎
Hi I am a 66 year old cancer survivor discovered strength side this month, Jan 2023. Already feel much better. Strengthening my body feels good. Thank you Hash brothers
Bro I don't know if they told you before, but your resemblance to Scar, the villain from Lion King, is amazing!
I do all these things. Meditation is a big one as well. I can maybe miss a day, but if I miss several days in a row I become super unfocused and irritable and just perform poorly in general.
I would also recommend journaling in whatever form you feel comfortable with. I generally just stick to one A4 page or less and just evaluate my performance from the previous day, what I would like to achieve on the upcoming day, what is pissing me off or keeping me distracted and I try to think of at least one, but preferably two or three, things I’m thankful for.
I've been doing these first thing in the morning for a while and additionally meditating, wim hoff breathing and stretching outside when i go for a walk, my morning routine takes about an hour and a half to two hours then I make a coffee and start working
Meditation, journaling, writing down what I am grateful for, having a plan/to-do list for the day
I get in the ocean every day and yes it’s uncomfortable at first, but now my body craves it and need it to feel fully awake. I know the discomfort is temporary and that I will recover quickly from the cold. I encourage people new to this practice to relax into it and release resistance. You kind of have to psyche yourself out. Don’t cower from it but go all in instead. Also, getting my hair wet and dunking completely under is a must for me, otherwise I feel incomplete and don’t get the full body reset I’m craving.
Thats good for u. Im glad u get to experience that. I wish because the experience sounds invigorating. I make do with the 🚿
Same! Nothing better than a daily dose of Vitamin Sea! 🏄🏽♀
One of My favorite Quotes
Find comfort in your discomfort.
Gardening! Of course, if you don’t have a garden, it’s a bit difficult. But, to me it’s both a way to workout (it can be light weeding or hard digging/moving dirt when preparing the garden in the spring/fall) and a way to simply disconnect from the daily grind, so it essentially becomes sort of meditating.
Journaling improved my life so much that I can't live without it. It sets the tone of my day.
Already doing the cold showers since February this year. Feeling stronger and refreshed after each shower! 💪
Sometimes going for a walk, but I already proposed to myself to start doing this daily, after I wake up. I think I will also grab the rings, walk to the nearby forest and do a series of dips, pull ups or whatever comes to mind that particular day.
start waking up early - I also am trying this one out, but as it is a new skill to me, it will only get improved by time. Just focus and repeat.
cool tips!
love your energy and content!
Thank you! I have been getting up early and having cold showers . Now will set the alarm 15 mins earlier to go for a walk before the gym
Thanks i realize that these habits are the same as mine. I realize that i'll be grateful for what my body brings me to. Nature, love to everybody🙌
I wake at 5:30 drink some water and then walk for about an hour with my dog, i have no excuse to not walk, my dog gets me out the house, i use different routes around my village every morning which adds a bit of variety. Arrive home and do an hour of jump rope, weighted ropes and some pushups, i like to do maybe 50 or so. Eat and relax for about 30 mins. I don’t check messages, i don’t do facebook, twitter etc and then head of to work. I have a fairly outdoor manual job so i’m on the go all day, arrive home around 5:30 and will eat around 7:00 p.m. Walk with my dog, a tepid shower and then i’ll watch a couple of hours of t.v. and on a normal evening i’ll be in bed around 9:30, read for an hour and try to be settled to sleep around 10:30, and normally i have no problem sleeping.
I love cold showers! It was uncomfortable at first but now I keep it cold the whole time and feel so much better !
Being present ... fully engaged...that is my #1reason I ride my Harley. No choice but to be fully in that moment. I love all 3 of these habits in your video and agree 100%!!!
I love waking at 5AM or before...exercise, bible reading and breakfast are my 100% alone time. And I also do enjoy that cold shower... but probably could stand to do it more!
Beautiful human beings! My morning routine is so supportive to set me up for each day in life, whatever I may do or face if I start my day grounded, connected and clear the day is amazing 🙏🌞
From deep breathing and meditation, drinking water and green tea, doing qigong, that “cold shower” affirmations while getting ready… the day is already been so beautiful ✌️❤️
I would add a 5-15 minute minimum daily meditation to this list. Works wonders 🙂
I’ve been finishing my showers cold for over 4 years now. I can count on one hand the times I don’t do it per year. I also plan my week on Sunday nights, little tasks that help keep me on track towards my goals. Movement, play and work every day. 🤙
Great video, guys.
My dog "makes" me take her for an hour walk at least once (sometimes twice) a day. We usually go in the park (a wooded area). Cell phone is in my fanny pouch for emergencies and on DND. There is little talking and a lot of "mental" communication with her. Sometimes I bring my mala beads to repeat a mantra, but most of the time it's a time for silent bonding with puppers, devoid of anything electronic...just listening (with ears, eyes, skin) to the wilderness and its animals. We have gotten to know the individuals in a community of deer, as well as a red-tailed hawk.
Wake up early since february,cold shower most of the time.
1 outdoor activity per month if its in my budget (this month was walking along the beach)
Each month,take some time journaling to determine the goal of the month and where i am at my actual situation.
Yoga everyday.
Since 1 month back to my exercise routine 3x per week(so hard to find back the consistency of routine,but its a goal)
And stop thinking about why people say dumb things and why they think like like this. To each his opinion and as long as i am at peace with what im doing their perspective is not an issue.( the journey is a long one though)
Added your stretching to my daily routine also,thank you
My two favorite Tarzan’s spitting that ancient knowledge once again. I’m here for it. Appreciate you both 🙏
#4 Be Grateful…..it too is life changing.
That's exactly what I've been doing last few months and it has done wonders for me!
Interesting. A few weeks ago I have started to get up two hours earlier, at a fixed time. Initially to have more time for preparing my day, meal prep, and the odd fitness challenge. I work shifts, so early in the mornings is the only reliable time for me.
Before doing Keto, this was never even an option because I would become tired in the afternoons when getting up early. Not anymore. Constant energy all day long.
I get up at 5am, take a cold shower for five minutes, and do all my actual showering with cold water these days. Very refreshing.
I then cook my lunch or dinner, have my breakfast if I feel like having one and then I still have an hour just for me.
So yeah, I can only agree: Get up early, spend time on yourself, and do things. Take cold showers. And for myself, start a keto diet. Simplified my life a LOT. And I get a lot more done.
I have been getting up at 3:30 am every day for about 2 years. I get my 2 miles and a small workout before I get to work at 6 am. As for the cold shower, I start with a regular shower, then finish with a cold shower.
You guys are amazing!!!!! Thanks for your videos. ❤❤
I already wake up early but now I've been more purposeful and intentional with my time- stretch (with Strength Side video), pray, meditate. I spend like an hour before work preparing for my day which is still me working remotely with a 6:30am start time. I do need to incorporate more walking into my daily routine.
Walking and hiking about 5km a day when I got my dog! Wow! Lost weight, got muscles and a clear mind!
working out is a habit since years now and I mostly stick to it no matter what......out of comfort zone no matter what.......walking and realize the big picture is a great thing...could be part of mine more often.....everthing must make sense....start from the presence is a young routine quit young.....better than being exactly right......like your work very much...as always
Thank you.for your clear and simple advices. To answer your question about what habit did I follow that changed my life. Excercise in the morning (short like 5 min) to set my body in motion. I write in my journal, it helps me have a higher prospective of some hard situations I encounter. Stop having complaining thoughts and have gratitude for simple things.
Thank you for your video, it is nice to hear positive words.
Kind regards.
Juan
Thanks for this short, but valuable video.
It made me realize that I too can use more walks on ordinary working days.
I also always take cold showers and this (summer time in Holland) is the perfect time to go even a step further and start swimming in open water. The goal is to do this regularly the whole year round to get used to the different seasons and never get a bad cold anymore.
My Frisian grandfather used cold water to wash himself all his life and he never got a bad cold.
Greetings from Edwin
Morning breathwork session is awesome Start to the day
Watching your videos is a habit that has improved my life.
Working out and journaling are the two habits that have improved my life the most. So did having a morning routine but I quit that habit. I'mm starting that again because it had such a huge impact on my productivity and mindset for the day and ultimately, how content I am with that day. Meditating for just a few minutes with breathing patterns has really helped calming my anxiety. Walking is great but I wanna put that back into my morning instead of evening. I hate cold showers haha but they give you sensation and body awareness like nothing else. I'm also committing to times off of social media because it's draining and distracting. My goal is to be more present and proactive. Great video, keep up the good work! I really like your channel because of how simple yet effective your content is. One of my long time favs on yt.
Solid! Thanks so much for taking the time to create & share this with us. Very helpful & encouraging.
I find by just getting in contact with the floor enough to clear my mind… sitting, meditating, stretching all starts on the floor and it’s a really great way to hit the in body reset button
3 best habits:
Wake up earlier....
Go for walk. ( 25 mints)
Take cold shower...
And Hearthfulness meditation. For 25 mints
1 hour of meditation at the start and at the end of the day, starting within the first and last fifteen minutes with a small practice to end/ start the day. This helped ground in tremendous clarity and cognizance, which eventually gave way to an easy set point to begin every day without requiring an hour to get into that state of being, once it was familiar, and once the arrangement was set in spirit.
What I like and do every morning, is get outside in our small garden barefoot and enjoy my one and only coffee of the day.
But waking up earlier, have a walk and a cold shower afterwards is definitely worth trying! I'll give it a shot.
You guys: please, think about the 70’s and above crowd that also watches you guys and are fans. Some of the jumps and other strenuous exercises are not possible for 75 year olds like myself but I like what you guys show us to create new habits; we oldies would love to be included in your videos. Remember this fellows!!!
I started sea swimming 8 weeks ago. We swim off a beautiful place called Battery Rocks in Penzance. Just in shorts, no wetsuit. About 25 mins a time depending on the cold. The sun risers I have seen have been magical. The seal is sometimes out. And you feel so totally alive.
Been practicing this attitude my whole life. Lost it for the last 5 years unfortunately I m back again thanks guys!
Hello ,wake up 15 min early. checked ☑️ Cold chower 10 min checked ☑️ 20 min meditation checked☑️ My morning routine. 😉 greetings from Belgium. 🇧🇪keep up the good work guys. Thanks for the video. (Btw 57 years young.) 😃
This channel it's a blessing, sometimes we can learn this in a life chaos time, but these guys give the best tips ever as the best way it could be, everything works, and trust it works well, 1 year of cold water helped me to start life again as a solo mom, the habits are small but the impact is sooooo big!
switching from wine to de alcoholized wine.....only has trace amounts of alcohol in it but just the feeling of opening a wine bottle, pouring it into a wine glass and having it vaguely taste like wine seems to be a visual cue that kicks in immediate anti anxiety....now its just less taxing on my liver......
All of these habits have become way way harder to implement since I became a parent. If I by some miracle wake up before my kid I have to stay super quiet not to wake him up. That eliminates cold showers, exercise, cooking, obvioulsy also walking (can´t leave my 1yo home alone).I guess I could try to meditate but i´m way way too tired for that in the morning. That said you uys are right - mornings are the key. I you start right, you finish right
Oh my gosh yes!! Been taking cold showers and doing icebaths and now I look forward to it. My mind is calm and I feel amazing afterwards!
I do all except the cold shower
My daily mental and physical routines have provided much productivity , positive mental health , and just staying well-balanced !!
Almost at 1mil bros! Richly deserved. After following this channel for a while, I've implemented these 3 habits and could have predicted them seeing this video title :D This stuff works!
great to hear that man!
One habit which has improved my mental health immensely is daily meditation of 10 minutes. It helps me to disidentify from negative thoughts and be less distracted.
Wonderful ideas. I do many of these already.
I go for a sunset beachwalk and dance every night for 30 mins minimum. So I practice about 6 songs each night. I've now learned about 20 dances in 2 years (yeah yeah they were hard 😉).
It's been a Gamechanger for me. Learning daily, brain health, physical health, optimising positive thinking.
I sleep in a great mood every night now. 💃🏽
Love your videos from Australia guys ❤️🙌🏾
But the real issue everyone faces these days is the definition of success.
My definition of success is being able to live like you guys do. Clearly doing things you love.
Unfortunately society pushes us to accept a very different definition of success that is inconsistent with the lifestyle you guys describe. 😪
Still figuring this part out....
You got it all bro. Life is simple 💛🙏👍
Great advice here...I went through depression and a few of these tricks really help. Snapping your body out of auto pilot. Keep changing stuff up to you active and present in the moment. Simple stuff like I swim in the morning before work and each time I change what locker I'm using. Drive to work different ways. I found this helps. Walking and quick runs are Lsogreat advice. Sounds small but shit like this really helps with well being.
This is awesome. Thanks Aaron
Great vid.
Habbit building is a vital skill.
I recently started a morning session of positive hydration + positive information.
And am working towards complementing it with an evening session of positive nutrition + positive socialising.
Ideas to schedules, schedules to habits, habitis to goals.
Great tips! The additional 1 I use is the deep breath practice for 4 rounds. Small incremental steps!
Making things easily accessible for me as been a game changer, the door I walk through everyday has a chin up bar an hangboard and around my workspace I have kettle bells. I use them so much more often than if they were harder to get to.
PRAYER and GRATITUDE
We are all raised with bad habits. Sometimes it takes years to over come what seems to be normal. I’ve been walking after dinner every night for years (2 miles). It is one of the best habits I trained myself to do.
.I take cold showers for almost 2 years now and very often its the best thing during the day. IT helps to releas all stres and bad energy. Great video and greetings from PL !!!
Nice reminder of the simple things..cheers.
Teach yourself to awaken before the alarm goes off. I hate the sound of an alarm & have slowly learned to wake up at whatever time I wish (mostly). I set the alarm if needed but usually wake up before it rings.
Keep on doing amazing job man with the body movements and stuff like that
i've had these habits for years still feel good
Good advice. Love the vids bro!
Great vid as always....I'd add mediation and a cycle ride along with, or inplace of a walk. Love yr holistic approach...Shine on!
I totally agree, I get up early and do my stretches,so glad I found this channel!keep em coming
Intermittent fasting and meditation. Life is so simple 🤍🙌🏻
Great Advise thanks for posting 🙏🕊
0:28 wake up earlier and stick to it, and have morning preplanned
1:25 go for a walk and be present in the moment
2:34 take a cold shower, it’s uncomfortable so helps deal with other daily stress
Fasting and walking 100 %. Much more clear in mind and productive overall.
In the morning, the first thing I do after opening my eyes is a Wim Hof breathing routine, it changed my days.
Love it! Other than going for a walk in the AM I do all of these!
A few annotations:
1. Rather than getting up early, get enough sleep. Choose a time to get up that is most comfortable to you and routinely get up then and also have a fixed time to go to bet. Improve your sleep rather than waking up earlier!!!
2. Going for a walk is good to relax. Doesn't have to be about thinking something through. Preferably the walk should be in daylight to positively influence your sleep-waking-cycle.
3. Cold showers do have positive effects on mood and stress reduction. The mechanism "let others stressors seem small" is debatable. Studies simply show potential reduction in depressive symptoms and lowering of stress. The are some possible mechanisms through adaption to cortisol, which is released during cold showers, and hightening of serotonin, but the details still need more research.
I saw that gorgeous Boulder mountain skyline in your video! I am working on becoming consistent with these habits
When I wake up I make a smoothie and I don't let myself sit down to drink it. I stay standing there at the counter and take my vitamins with it. It's a small thing but I KNOW I'll have my smoothie each morning so... this has been a simple way to ensure I take my vitamins.
Love this channel! Thanks for the enriching nature of your videos. They are awesome. 😊😄
Wake up at 04h30 for a 45 min - 900 Cal kettlebell workout, followed by a cold shower + keto OMAD. Feeling better every day since starting this lifestyle. Also drastically reduced my alcohol intake :-)
Dad always told me to "walk it off" when I got way too aggressive fighting my big brother. It became a sort of a habit, just walk it off, it's great.
Why are you fighting so much?
the best of the best
Thanks! Nice tipps :) I added Meditation with deep breathing to my morning routine. 10-30 min every day. Getting my brain clear and implementing good, positive thoughts actively. A cold shower is also a part of the routine. Very effective! I´ll try the 15 min earlier and the walk. :)
Thank you for your Output! I started the hanging and the squad 2 years ago and don't wanna live without them anymore! Even my father got a hanging place now. Very nice :)) Big Ups to you!!
Stay off the couch, avoid sugar, eat more greens, minimise or avoid alcohol, meditate daily, read books. A simple life can be so rewarding.
Woah man, there are two of you. This is the first time watching this channel and I didn't realise that until the middle of the video ! Great tips friend. Cheers
Wake up at 4:30 most days during the week for the workout, cold showers only all summer. Other seasons they're moderately warm and go to cold at the end.
I love cold showers. In the winters when it snows, I take snow baths! I make a camp fire at night, strip down and dive into the snow and scrub myself all over with the cold snow. Then I go to the fire and warm up a bit and repeat. I love this and taking barefoot snow walks. I work up to longer and longer ones over time contain my steps. Yes, I go back to the fire and get a warm up and repeat. It's fun!
That basics are helping me a lot. Thanks from España.
I wake up at 5am during the week and walk after dinner. The cold shower is a a stretch but I think the time to start it is now in the summer when it's not totally miserable :)
Beautiful video, thanx brothers
love your ideas and your channel. I started experimenting with cold showers this summer when I was experiencing panic attacks quite often. It really works and you can feel the effects instantly! I see now, especially as I get older, that the heat is not always your friend, although sometimes can be soothing to muscles but not so much nervous system, or skin etc. Side note: I also found appreciation for the shower and bath scenes 😆 so thank you!
